Architect of the Year
Entry Criteria
Open to an individual or any size of practice.
This award will celebrate a professional architect or architectural technologist that has used timber as a successful and defining material within a completed building in the UK.
Emphasis will be given to the technical and creative reasons why timber technology or particular system was specified – CLT, glulam, LVL, SIPS, timber frame – and how this was communicated within the supply chain, project team and delivered in the final concept.
Particular note will be given to the use of digital construction techniques, integrating the principles of circular design and futureproofing – design for deconstruction – imagination, biomimicry and creative ways to problem solve, use offsite methods and use of innovative architecture to inspire building design, within a framework of budget, project deliverability and timescale.
